For three days a week, participants will be immersed in an inclusive or special needs school setting, working alongside an experienced EA and teacher. The remaining two days of the work week, participants will be engaging in educational coursework specific to the role of an EA. Coursework topics may include working with complex behaviours or literacy/numeracy support.
